Loaded up my Embryon with all LED's under the play field, bought Comet's LED adapter, hooked up to the board, no flickering, but the inserts always seem to be slightly on. Is there a power supply issue? Will too much voltage keep them on faintly? They light up fine when they are supposed to.

Is there anyway other than non-ghosting to eliminate this?

I had a Centaur that i did this to from Cointaker, didn't have this issue. Is it the kind of bulbs?

I have not checked the voltage. I will check tomorrow.

I have 7.44 VDC at the test points of the LED anti-flicker boards. Power supply rebuild? I also have high readings on my sound board, giving me no sound. Could all of this be tied to the power supply?

Ok, rectifier board is rebuilt, caps on the solenoid board are now new, still have the lights on even when they are supposed to be off. Unplugging or moving the alligator clip from the anti-flicker boards does nothing. The back box has lights that strobe behind the title 'Embryon', the lights that are supposed to off seem to pulse at the same rate as the strobing title lights.

You are not hijacking it at all! You are SUPPLEMENTING it......I will look at the test points.
